These resources are intended for those seeking to estabish and develop a Social Enterprise. Particularly focused on learning at and from work, they support a University of Plymouth module, which can contribute to the University's Continual Professional Development (CPD) framework. Through this framework learners can achieve a Bachelors in Professional Developments or a Masters in Professional Development. Within the University's CPD programme the resources will be introduced and used by a tutor who will support and facilitate student learning through use of the resources. This will be in the form of blended learning; a mixture of face to face and use of these on-line resources. Information in this document and the tutor notes included within the PowerPoint presentations are intended to s

This course is a foundational study of the effects of single and multiple interactions on neutron distributions and their applications to problems across the Nuclear Engineering department - fission, fusion, and RST. Particle simulation methods are introduced to deal with complex processes that cannot be studied only experimentally or by numerical solutions of equations. Treatment will emphasize basic concepts and understanding, as well as showing the underlying scientific connections with current research areas.

This course examines the functioning of democracy in the U.S. beginning with the theoretical foundations of democratic representation. It explores how the views of the public influence policy making. It also examines factors, such as malapportionment, that lead to non-majoritarian outcomes. Evidence on how well policy outcomes reflect public opinion is reviewed, and whether certain groups are over or under-represented in the policy process. Also discussed are reforms that might make our democracy more responsive to the American public.

Respecting the individuality of each person is a central value of social work but as the term suggests social work is not only about individual perspectives: it also takes place in a social context. Society demography geography national legislation national policy and language all play an important part both in the lives of service users and carers and in the practice of social work practitioners. This free course will introduce you to the importance of recognising that social work practice happens in context. In particular you will learn about what this means for social work in Wales in the Welsh context.

Description: Purchased in 1862 by citizens of Richmond for the confederate Government, was occupied during the war by President Davis and his family. It was visited by President Abraham Lincoln a few days after the evacuation; now a Confederate Museum, each of the thirteen Confederate States having in it a memorial room. In front of the mansion is the propeller shaft of the 'Merrimac,' whose famous engagement with the 'Monitor' revolutionized naval warfare.

A talk delivered by Paul Cavanagh and James Kay at the Anybook Oxford Libraries Conference 2015 - Adapting for the Future: Developing Our Professions and Services, 21st July 2015. Universities face the challenge of providing high quality services which meet the demands of users to provide access to more varied resources in a rapidly changing technological environment. This is balanced against the increasing costs of resources and a political and sector-wide institutional need to manage and better account for library budgets. This talk will focus on how the University of Derby is using statistical and decision-based tools to manage and plan library resources effectively; collaborating with publishers, academics, colleagues within the Library and across the library and information sector to Wales; http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/uk/

This activity is designed to familiarise early career lecturers with the English Benchmark Statement, and the principles underlying such documents. It consists of three parts: 1. An overview of the activity; 2. An activity that can be done with a group (useful to leaders of accredited courses); 3. An activity that can be carried out by individual lecturers.

The interactive Earth system: biology in geologic, environmental and climate change throughout Earth history. Since life began it has continually shaped and re-shaped the atmosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere and the solid earth.&#160;This course introduces the concept of 'life as a geological agent' and examines the interaction between biology and the earth system during the roughly 4 billion years since life first appeared.

This course covers vector and multi-variable calculus. It is the second semester in the freshman calculus sequence. Topics include vectors and matrices, partial derivatives, double and triple integrals, and vector calculus in 2 and 3-space. MIT OpenCourseWare offers another version of 18.02, from the Spring 2006 term. Both versions cover the same material, although they are taught by different faculty and rely on different textbooks. Multivariable Calculus (18.02) is taught during the Fall and Spring terms at MIT, and is a required subject for all MIT undergraduates.

Active galaxies provide a prime example of high energy processes operating in the Universe. This unit gives an overview of active galaxies, including the supermassive black holes that power the engines at their centres, and the emission processes by which we detect and study them. It also gives practice in mathematical techniques for analysing data and theoretical models.
